"Sons of Anansi" continues the theme of the mystical connection between people and the world - the real one and the one that is not revealed to everyone. The hero of the novel is preparing for the wedding when he learns about the death of his father. From this moment on, his life loses its order and turns into a dream from which he wants to wake up as quickly as possible, as nightmarish as it is beautiful.
